DAILY HERALD.
A GLASS FACTORY.
sac Will Probably be Estab-
llshed Here.

Oac Will Probably be Estab.
lished Here.
That manufactures are essential for
the continued prosperity of Los Ange-
les has long been an established fact,
and any proposition for the establish
ment Of an industry here is sure to be
hailed with delight by the inhabit-
ants of the Angel City" For some
time past the proposition to start a
watch factory here has engaged the
attention of number of Eastern cap
italists, and their visit to this city for
the purpose of making the necessary
arrangements may be expected at any
moment. During the past two
months, however, an idea origin
ated among some wide-awake gen.
tlemen of this community that
there was an excellent opening for a
glass factory, and they Immediately
went to work to see if there were any
insurmountable obstacles in their
path. Of the principal material nee
essary, viz, sand, there was no doubt
but that there was sufficient to meet
almost any demand that might be
made in that direction. And then
came the question as to whether it
was adapted for the purposes re-
uuired. A visit was made to the
river bed, a small bag filled
with sand taken hap-hazard
and then the operators returned to
town and proceeded to wind up the
experiment. 1t was despatched to
the well-known glass works at Lara
mie City and letter sent asking
them to work it and forward the re-
suit of the labor. Last week small
box was received containing dozen
specimens OF glass, clear as crystal
aud answering in every detail the
most exacting requirements. A letter
soon followed, stating that the sand
forwarded was perfectly adapted to
all branches of the glass industry
and also that 1t took go per cent. less
soda TO cork 1t than the average material
furnished.
The gentlemen are naturally very
enthusiastic over this result and there
is little doubt but that factory will
soon be established here, and well
come addition made to the business
enterprises of Los Angeles. To the
Belgian colony the prize will un-
doubtedly go, as from that quarter the
idea originated and in their hands the
working of it has so far been. 1t will
be remembered that Belgium is one Of
the greatest glass-manufacturing cent
ers in the world, and its representa-
tives are naturally more or l"ss inter-
ested in that industry, hence the
source of the plan nov detailed. Spec
linens of the glass alluded to can be
seen at the HERALD office, and are also
exhibited by M. Raskin, editor of LIE
Progress, to whose courtesy the reporter
is indebted for the above details.

A barn belonging to VIM. Greis,
who resides mile from Compton, was
totally destroyed by fire yesterday
morning early. Two negroes sleeping
in the barn had a narrow escape.
They were not awakened until the en-
tire building was in flames, and had
to jump from the loft to save their
lives. In the stable were fifteen
thoroughbred horses, of which only
one was saved. Among the animals
consumed was a colt, full brother of

A Pleasant Social Event.

Last Friday evening a very
pleasant social event took place al

Eldorado, Kansas, Tuesday night
Mr.. Campbell came to kirksville
little more than a year ago, and
from the time of his arrival till
quite recently, has been connected
with the Kirksville Savings Bank.
Few young men hsye succeeded,
in Kirksville, in winning their way
to universal popularity so quickly
as did Mr.. Campbell. Quiet and
unassuming, but every inch a
gentleman, he has commanded the
respect and esteem of all classes.
When it became known that he had
decided to locate elsewhere the
young men, headed by W. ID. Old
ham, determined to give him a
complimentary reception in keep
ing with the esteem in which he is
held by his associates. The re-
ception took place in the parlors of
the PARCELS House, and was fol-
lowed by a banquet, which sus-
tanned the reputation of Mr.. Jack
son as caterer. Mr.. Oldham presi-
ded in his usual happy manner
and his address of welcome to the
festal board was a continued flow
of wit, humor and poetry. An ex-
cellent time was enjoyed, and the
best wishes of all follow Mr..
Campbell to his future home.
